Directory of Libraries Resources

Home > Computers > Software > Operating Systems > Linux > Projects > Libraries

One of the most powerful aspect of modern operating systems like Linux is the ability of programs to call standard libraries. This promotes reuse of pre-written code and leads to less errors and redundancy. This Library Category has links to software with different licenses. You must check the license terms individually before using software.
